Mastering the Markets: A 20-Year Trading Veteran Shares His Secrets

At Tiger Brokers, we love sharing the stories behind our most successful CBA traders. This week, we're honored to share insights from Daryl Lau ( also known as @Funkyhunk), among the winners of the top 5 most promising Cash Boost Account (CBA) traders, whose two decades of market experience have shaped his winning approach.

When we reached out to Daryl after his standout performance, he generously opened up about his trading philosophy, biggest wins, and advice for fellow traders.

Daryl's journey began in wealth management 20 years ago, where he developed a keen understanding of market dynamics. Today, he trades several times a week, blending swing trading with strategic intraday moves. "Immediate liquidity to capitalize on trading opportunities" was what drew him to Tiger Brokers' CBA platform, allowing him to act quickly when markets move.

One trade stands out in Daryl's memory - a leveraged Tesla ETF play during a 90-day tariff reprieve announcement. "There were huge intraday movements when news broke that Trump would stop the tariffs," he recalls. This trade exemplifies his ability to capitalize on news-driven opportunities, though he's quick to clarify that he doesn't rely on traditional valuations. "I do not use valuations for my trading style," Daryl explains, preferring instead to read market sentiment and technical indicators.

What makes Daryl's approach so replicable? "Currently, sentiment is very headline-driven," he observes, noting opportunities for both long and short positions. His golden rule: "Be nimble and need to plan exit strategy even before entering a trade." This discipline has served him well, particularly in sectors like gold mining, which he currently favors.

For traders looking to improve, Daryl offers sage advice: "Understand your own risk appetite, and always know what your plan is if your trade goes wrong." He praises Tiger Brokers' platform as "straightforward, easy-to-use, and let me capitalize on trading opportunities quickly" - qualities every active trader values.

We're incredibly grateful to Daryl for sharing his hard-earned wisdom. His story proves that consistent success comes from adaptability, discipline, and a clear strategy.
